    Let your AI read Reddit, X and YouTube

    Agent Reach (MIT, about 110k GitHub stars) gives Claude Code and other agents read-only access to Reddit, X, YouTube subtitles, GitHub and more, with no API fees.

    Skip the reading: hand it to Claude

    Copy the whole guide and paste it into Claude, or install it as a Claude Code skill so it’s always there.

    Download as a Claude skill

    Save it as ~/.claude/skills/agent-reach/SKILL.md, then ask Claude Code to “let your ai read reddit, x and youtube”.

    The prompts

    Install it

    Paste into Claude Code.

    Install Agent Reach following https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Panniantong/Agent-Reach/main/docs/install.md. Install it only from that GitHub URL, never from PyPI. Before running anything, show me what you'll run and wait for my OK. Then add the reddit channel and tell me when I need to sign in.

    Hear what customers say

    Once it's installed.

    Use Agent Reach to research what people say about [YOUR PRODUCT TYPE] on Reddit and YouTube in the last 3 months. Find the 10 most common complaints, the 5 questions people ask most, and the exact words they use. Quote short snippets with links. Read only.

    Setup

    1. Open Claude Code and paste the install prompt below. It follows the project's own install guide.

    2. The defaults (GitHub, YouTube, web) work straight away with no sign-in.

    3. To add Reddit or X, ask Claude to add that channel. It opens a window where you sign in yourself. Use a spare account.

    4. Ask your research question in plain words, like the second prompt.

    What I use

    • Agent ReachInstall only from GitHub. The PyPI package called agent-reach is a different project.
    • Claude CodeOr any agent that can run terminal commands.

    Worth knowing

    • It's read-only: it never posts, comments, likes or messages. But sites like Reddit and X can still restrict accounts used for automation, so sign in with a spare account.
    • It keeps everything in one folder (~/.agent-reach), and "Uninstall Agent Reach" removes it.
